Startup Nation : From Life to Business...

Currently holidaying for a week in Mumbai, the days are very busy here and hence,this has affected the frequency of the no of articles on my blog However,visited Crossword in Mumbai and purchased a new book "Startup Nation:Open for Business" by Sloan Brothers(Jeff and Rich Sloan) and after reading first few pages,I was very much impressed and Rs 665 is worth for the book The initial part of the introduction is very interesting and worth mentioning on my blog:

You're a dreamer right? That's why you've picked this book.Maybe you had a great idea knocking around inside your head for years.Maybe you've roughed it out on the back of a napkin and tucked it away somewhere.But you don't know what the next step is or what the first step is.Or,just maybe,you're sitting in your cubicle, next to a hundred other cubicles,thinking, "How do I stop working for the man?".If any of these descriptions fit you,you are an entrepreneur-in-waiting.And you're not alone.You are one of us-one of the two-thirds of Americans(oops,we are Indians) who dream about owning their own business.

The book also covers "Life Planning" which is very much important for people who want to startup(part time or full time).Life Plan helps you to know your current status,your likes,dislikes,your family responsibilities,dreams..... This makes me remind of Mr. Narayana Murthy who quoted "Infosys would not have been possible without Sudha Murthy's support"and this is where support comes into picture.

An interesting article on the same can be found here and an example life-plan can be downloaded from hereThis Life Plan would definitely help us in striking a balance between personal and business life There are lots of other facts that are covered in the book and would be covering the interesting articles(from the book) on my blog...
